| Chandra X-ray (orange color scheme)
This remarkable Chandra image gave scientists their first look at X-rays from Mars. In the sparse upper atmosphere of Mars, about 120 (75 miles) kilometers above its surface, the observed X-rays are produced by fluorescent radiation from oxygen atoms. (Credit: NASA/CXC/MPE/K.Dennerl et al.)

S95-01407 (February 1995) --- (Artist's concept of possible exploration programs.) Approximately 200 kilometers above the Martian surface, a nuclear thermal propulsion transfer vehicle and the ascent stage of a two-stage Mars lander prepare to rendezvous. The vehicle's nuclear reactors also serve as the primary onboard electrical power source with solar arrays providing backup power. Looming behind the spacecraft, the enormous shield volcano, Ascraeus Mons, rises through early morning clouds wit...

S95-01408 (February 1995) --- (Artist's concept of possible exploration programs.) After driving a short distance from their Ganges Chasma landing site on Mars, two explorers stop to inspect a robotic lander and its small rover. This stop also allows the traverse crew to check out the life support systems of their rover and space suits within walking distance of the base. This artwork was done for NASA by Pat Rawlings, of SAIC.
